Jet Tools JWBS-20QT, 20QT-5 Resaw Guide, Miter Gauge, Adjusting Clearance between Fence and Table

Adjusting Clearance between Fence and Table

Referring to Figures 11 and 12:

Check the clearance between the table and the fence. The fence should not rub against the table surface but be slightly above it. This gap should be the same at the front of the table as it is at the rear.

Figure 11

If the gap between fence and table is not consistent, loosen either of the hex nuts on the hook (Figure 12) and rotate the sliding pad until the fence/table gap is consistent across the full length of the table. When this is achieved, tighten both hex nuts.

Check the adjustment of the hook at the rear of the fence. The hook should be positioned so that it overlaps the rear rail by approximately 1/8” (Fig. 12). To adjust the hook, loosen the upper hex nut and slide the hook in or out as needed. Re- tighten upper hex nut.

Resaw Guide

For resawing attach the post (A, Fig. 13) to the fence with the lock knob (B, Fig. 13). There is a slotted hole in the fence that will accommodate the resaw kit. Position the post so that it is centered with the front edge of the blade. The resaw guide will give you a taller, single point contact surface during resawing.

Miter Gauge

1.Place the miter gauge in the table slot.

2.With a square verify the miter gauge face is

square to the blade. Figure 13

3.If the miter gauge is not square to the blade loosen the lock knob (C, Fig. 13) and adjust to the proper setting. Tighten the lock knob.

4.If the pointer is not at 90 degrees, loosen the screw (D, Fig. 13) holding the pointer and move the pointer to 90 degrees.

5.Re-tighten the screw.
